I have been employed by Vetlink Employment Service since December 2012. Before this, I spent a number of years working as a Veterinary Nurse in general practice. Before I started at Vetlink, I had very little knowledge about how the world of recruitment worked. However, the training Vetlink provided me with was exceptional. It has enabled me to understand the recruitment process and the importance of matching the perfect candidate with the perfect job. I started at Vetlink in an administration position. I believe this assisted me greatly in gaining a solid understanding of how the company's processes work. By helping the senior consultants with their applications, and assessments of candidates, it made me understand why Vetlink has such well thought out procedures in place. The support I received from Mark and Denise was fantastic. At no point did I feel I was out of my depth. Denise and Mark made sure I was comfortable with my assigned tasks every step of the way. Once I had a solid understanding of the administrative side of things, both Mark and Denise would ask me to assist them with jobs such as calling referees. I found this exciting and would look forward to being able to share the assessments of candidates with them both. Things began to progress quickly, as I was becoming more and more familiar with the world of recruitment. It was getting really, really exciting! It would be over two years ago now, but I will never forget my first placement. I went home with a huge smile on my face, and I have not looked back since. I am now responsible for the placement of both locum and permanent vets and vet nurses in Australia and the United Kingdom. Working at Vetlink has been such a positive experience for me. The training and knowledge I have received over the last three years is something I will always be grateful for. I hope to be at Vetlink for many years to come!
